This Colonial Revival/Craftsman home built in 1895 with amazing period detail is sited behind a wrought iron fence and large field stone columns. The house has remained in the same family since the 1950's and has 6 bedrooms, 4 full baths, 8 fireplaces, and 2 story garage/carriage house. A cozy foyer with fireplace opens to a large formal living room with pocket door and large wood burning fireplace with a classic period mantle. The octagonal dining room is eye catching with built-ins, wood panel walls and a fireplace with stone surround. The most notable change has been the creation of a first floor bedroom suite. The second floor of the carriage house awaits your personal touch with potential to create an office/gym/in-law suite. This convenient location is a block and a half from the Chestnut Hill Reservoir, walking distance to public transportation, and the new shopping center at Chestnut Hill called The Street providing distinctive shopping, dining & entertainment options.
